In the 'Images' section, select which image you want to see as the main image. Click on the three dots on the top right corner of the image and click 'Main image'.

Assigning an image to a product variant

Then click on the arrow next to the photo and select the one that applies to this variant.

Why do my photos change colour when I add them to Shoplo?

If your photos change colour when displayed in the browser, they probably are in the wrong colour space. Change it to sRGB to solve this issue.

1) Open the photo in Adobe Photoshop

2) Select Edit -> Convert to profile ...

3) Under 'Destination Space' add the following profile: sRGB ICE61966-2.1.

4) Save the photo.

And it's ready :)

Adding images to product descriptions

You can also add images to product descriptions or to pages (e.g: Contact page). Remember that they will appear in the files section. For this reason, each image you add to your product description should have a different name. Otherwise, they will be overwritten.

Why are my images rotated when I upload them to my Dashboard?

Every image has encrypted information (metadata) about its position. Some browsers allow a rotated view of images, without any change to the metadata.

If you find your images being rotated when you didn't ask for it, there is a simple and quick way to fix that. Just open the image in any graphic design software, like Adobe Photoshop, Gimp, Paint, etc. Save the image, upload to Shoplo and everything should be just fine.
